Why should I consider taking nootropics?

Original post in this thread

[deleted] · 0 points

It seems like a very fascinating area, as I am a bachelor of science student who could probably use the 'mind expanding inspiration' that some nootropic substances give. I am however worried about side effects. What's the best reason an ordinary person like me should consider nootropics? Or is there none at all?

I had just taken my magnesium, glycine, and melatonin, and I heard behind me a great voice as of a trumpet, saying, “I am Stimulation and Relaxation, the Caffeine and the L-theanine,” and, “What thou seest, write in a book and send it unto the seven online vendors: unto Ceretropic, and unto Powder City, and unto LiftMode, and unto NewstarNootropics, and unto Nootropics Depot, and unto Peak Nootropics, and unto Pure Bulk.”

I gave my only begotten GI tract for your sins. Go forth and spread the word of Noots.

Thanks be to Giurgea.

Yep, my fault guys. I'll just stop posting, and things will get better. It's all on me... You can all go back to caffeine/L-theanine, long winded modafinil, and "does piracetam work" posts. No need to advance the communi

What is the best nootropic for someone looking primarily for a boost of energy and motivation that's stronger than caffeine but less extreme than amphetamines?

6mg of melatonin is too much. I take .5-1mg. Melatonin has been shown to be much more effective at lower doses. Lower your dose and see how that works. 6mg would mean a very hard time waking up, and hours of foggyness in

Natrium Health releases two new stacks, including interesting caffeine/stimulant blend

Replying to EnLilaSko · Kinda disappointed to see a proprietary blend.

I wrestled with that one for a long long time. I don't blame you for being disappointed. The vast majority of the products we are releasing are not going to be proprietary. However, the Alcohol Defense definitely needed

L-theanine is certainly anti-nootropic for me, unless I am using much stronger stimulants than caffeine. Everyone's GABAergic system is going to vary. Mine has seen some things. I can take all sorts of stimulants, and be

You can't really say that about most drugs, though. Not much has been used more than caffeine, L-theanine, and alcohol across human history. Also, it's not new in its concentrated form. It was discovered in 1949, and fir
